Remarkable Cure.

Ed. CITIzEN.-Many friends of your
fellow-citizen and friend, Hugh 4ok-
ley, OF Campbellsville, through your
columns have heard of his sore atf1lc-
ton and are anxious to learn the result.
To relieve such anxiety and to afford
need and valuable information to 9TH
ers similarly afflicted, l give the follow
ing statement of facts, viz:
About IL months ego tumOr made
it's appearance on Mr.. Yokley's face
near the outer corner of his left eye,
which slowly increased in size for or
10 months, causing but little anxiety.
After this it began to increase more
rapidly in size al was evidently be-
coming malignant, leaving no longer
doubt that it was cancer. Having
about IA years ago one of the same
kind on his cheek cured by DR.. w. c.
Couden's Antidote, he, after the urgent
solicitation of family and friends, de-
cided to visit the doctor at Evansville,
Ind, and at his earnest request went
| with and nursed him until he returned
home. At the time he left home his
ulcer had reached very painful and
alarming stage. 1t had extended just
to the rim of his eye socket; the skin
of his ace, in number of places, with
scales like the nucleus of other cancers F.;
his general health and strength were
rapidly failing, and day or two be-
fore he lett erysipelas in an aggravated
form set up in connection with the I'LL
Ger, and when he reached Evansville
had extended beneath it and on one
side across the bridge of his nose and
the other entirely covered the ear. On
May 18th the doctor began local and
internal treatment to remove this new
trouble, preparatory to treating the
cancer. On the l4th, having succeeded
in this, he commenced using his Anti
dote. On the 10Th he sent Mr.. Yokley
home with medicines for local and con-
stitutional treatment and necessary in
structions for their use. On the morn
ing of the 23d the dead mass of the
cancer fell out In an unbroken lump
leaving the pit in clean healthy con-
dition; and having healed regularly
until Saturday, the 18th of June, the
last scab scaled of, leaving a smooth
healthy surface and no remaining un.
pleasant sensation; his health and
strength well restored !; the skin of his
face clear of all scales and his complex.
ion fresh and fair. To his family
neighbors and numerous friends his
cure is wonder and joy. 1 am mo-
paid to write this article, but l feel il
my duty, as we'll as pleasure, to make
lpublic these frcts that others of my
fellow-men similarly afflicted may
thereby take encouragement and saw,
their lives by knowing the fact tina
cancers, even malignant cancers, can b.
Toured; and that they may take warning
| by the mistakes of many who, for on,
cause or other, refused to be treated o.
fell into the hands of persons ignoran
and unskilled or who delayed the mat.
ter until it was utterly too late.
could name number OF such cases,
| add that II years ago DR.. C. made per
feet and permanent cure of similar
tumor on my face, and that have grea
confidence in his skill.
